Bjorn,

You are absolutely correct. What the Corpsmen need to know is that, if the vendor does something surprising, we need a machanism to detect that and immediatly deflect to the vendor's helpdesk. I am very serious. The distribtution needs a signature. Newsgroup questions require the signature. If it fails, the question is immediately referred to the vendor helpdesk. As I have spent a several quality hours responding to these messages, I am a real fan of this scheme.

Brad,
Even a novice with a mere decade of Unix exposure - as myself -
understand what Tom has been writing. Some operating systems like to
keep things like they were... and do start ntpd via a link, which makes
it look like xntpd.

Maybe I am wrong... but someone with a Tru64 problem asked us for
help. Tom who likely work for the vendor came in. Why not appreciate
the vendor support?

Time to tune the volume down a bit?
